Zephaniah 3:2-4

Revised Standard Version

²She listens to no voice,
she accepts no correction.
She does not trust in the Lord,
she does not draw near to her God.

³Her officials within her
    are roaring lions;
her judges are evening wolves
    that leave nothing till the morning.
⁴Her prophets are wanton,
    faithless men;
her priests profane what is sacred,
    they do violence to the law.
